Since you've recently had frosty weather and because there's a chance you'll get more cold weather in February, I'd wait until early March to do any pruning. When you see your shrubs begin to put out new growth you'll know they're ready to put out their spurt of spring growth. That's the time to prune them back. Enjoy your garden!
